User blog:GalaxiaWild/Does anyone notice the letters in Devil May Cry 1?

I have played the original Devil May Cry, and one detail I notice is that letters appear in various parts of the game. They seem to resemble Siddham script and remind me of Japanese esoteric Buddhism (particularly Shingon Buddhism), and they also kinda resemble Hindu Om symbols. They appear as stages of Dante's devil trigger gauge, on an object which Dante must swing his sword at multiple times to activate various events in stages, all over the walls during the final battle with Nightmare, and in the fight with Mundus (during a laser attack as well as all over his body). Not to mention, in the first stage of Dante's fight with Mundus, I swear I can see these letters in fireballs that Dante shoots in order to attack him. Are the letters there for any reason or is it just for show? GalaxiaWild (talk) 00:12, February 28, 2014 (UTC)
